Wraps. Condition: Near Fine. 7" x 10", unpaginated (approx. 100 pp.), stiff wraps. A highly-sought-after guidebook for collectors and dealers in paper ephemera (maps, prints) and books. Originally issued just as one of Arrader's catalogues (#28, July 1981), it has become a reliable reference book to the trade. Very well illustrated with reproductions of very scarce antique maps and prints. Includes bibliography of reference books. This copy in Near Fine condition with only mild age-toning around the edges and even milder foxing of the outer text block edges; otherwise a Fine copy, spotless inside and out; no creases, tears or other issues.
